Well update time:
Radio finally wired up and it gets loud, at volume of 20 its a nice comfortable volume and it goes up to 100
Sadly though about two weeks after getting that done my radiator decided to spring a leak...again.
With the car being parked a while i'm taking advantage of the down time and doing what i've been meaning to for a while.
I always liked the black panel on the back but with the plastic cover ones running in the 200+ range i'm just going to paint it on.
Did a mock up in microsoft paint and rushed a little so its sloppy.
What do you think?
